Do you believe that creators should have the ability to get paid for the value they give to their fans?

We do, which is why we're building Patreon, a platform that powers membership services for creators with established followings. Patreon strives to provide creators with insight, education, and tools that make it possible to retain creative control while running their creative business, so creators can focus on creating and energizing their fanbases.

Our creator base has doubled in the last year alone, and we have paid over $500 million directly to creators on our platform. To support this growth, Patreon is looking for a Senior Data Scientist.

The Patreon Data Science team makes it easy to make Patreon better. We work fast and emphasize impact. We inform product, team, and company strategy with data-driven research and analytics. Our work culture is highly autonomous. We believe that hiring smart, ambitious people and giving them strong ownership of their work lead to the best results. Your work will ensure that teams at Patreon have the data they need to make great decisions about what to build next.

  • You are fluent in Python and relevant data libraries (pandas, numpy), and know how to manipulate data in Excel.
  • You have a strong understanding of experimentation and statistical analysis.
  • You can crisply communicate complicated information in charts and dashboards.

What you will be able to accomplish:

  • Help build a product that powers creative businesses around the world, that fosters artistic creation, and that compensates creators fairly for the value they create
  • Focus on the problems that you feel will foster your best personal career growth
  • Have a fantastic time solving hard problems with data
